[ For a moment all that's heard is some grunting and probably a few obscene curses. He's still trying to figure the phone out, but that's because he's not familiar with it. Technology isn't Benny's strong suit in the slightest. He had a flip phone when him and Dean were talking, but he ditched that a long time ago. Getting anything fancier never really appealed to Benny. No need. This thing wasn't what he wanted to be shackled to at all.

Suddenly a fuzzy beard appears in frame and it's clearly speckled with spots of gray. There are a few more grunts as Benny finally arrives at the conclusion that this isn't just your run of the mill phone. Then again the only phones he's familiar with are the flip ones. This one's in a whole different league and dammit if it's not pissing him off.

He clears his throat quickly and finally becomes a little more visible on the screen. When he found this damn thing in his pocket he didn't know what to expect, but maybe he could get a hold of someone who could help him out. ] I don't think this damned thing is even workin', but if anyone's out there I could sure use a nudge in the right direction. A state would greatly appreciated. This house don't look too comfortin' and I'm itchin' to get the hell outta dodge.

[ He ain't got no beef with her, but he'd much rather her keep the information to herself. It doesn't bother him so much if a few people know, but the whole house might be a bit much. The last thing Benny needs is a lynch mob lining up to try to take him out. Besides it's his first day here. He's gonna try not to make too many waves if it's at all possible. ] I don't intend to kill you in your sleep. I mean unless you try to kill me first, but I think we'll be okay.

How about that tour? [ They can talk about who's gonna kill who while they move. He's itching to get an actual look at this place from the inside. ] Unless you wanna stand around and discuss murder a little bit more.

No, you're right. We can talk about murder while we walk, no?

[Just kidding, of course. He seems reasonable, positively charming in that gruff, Southern way of his. Well, if he doesn't intend to suck her blood, she can dig it. And if he does... well, Ruby's a fast runner, and she's got enough friends that could make his life difficult.

But Ruby would also say she's a good judge of character, and he doesn't seem particularly threatening. Not that you can always tell, but if she were to guess, she'd think he wants no trouble. And so she smiles, motions down the hall.]

Let's start with the boring stuff down here before we move to the better things upstairs, like the bar and the diner. Kitchen, library and ballroom. Don't worry, we won't stuff you in a gown, not without enough alcohol at least.
